You pass the x in one side and numbers to the other side
8x-5x=58-4
add and subtract
3x=54
divide by 3
x=18
6,000 = 6 x 10^3 square meters.
6,000 = 60 x 10^2 square meters
6,000 = 600 x 10^1 square meters.

Yes, it is reasonable for Brittany to think that she will need more than 2 batches of cookies to feed all of the people at her school.
One batch of dough makes 2 dozen cookies, or 24 cookies.
This means that two batches of dough makes 4 dozen cookies, or 48 cookies.
If Brittany only brought 48 cookies to school, some kids wouldn't get cookies. So, we know that Brittany should probably bake more than 2 batches of cookies.
